The Mouse Click (Formerly Daily Mouse Clicks)

 You download a file and close the download page then, OOPS! Where is it?  Well, your browser chooses where your downloads are stored but you can take control of the process. If you use more than one browser, you will need to modify the settings of each one individually. In Firefox:  Firefox Downloads Go to "Tools" near the top of your open Firefox browser. Select "Options" from the drop down menu.   Personally, I have them all go to a folder called "Downloads" but you can choose to have them download to the location of your choice, such as your desktop or have the browser ask you every time where you want to save the file by clicking the circle in front of "Always ask me where to save files." In Chrome: Click the wrench on the top right hand side of the browser. Select "settings" from the drop down menu. Click the link at the bottom of the page that says "Show Advanced Settings..."

Instead, your browser is taken to a website hosting some malicious iFrame script (which takes advantage of the Blackhole exploit kit, and puts your computer at risk of infection by malware)," it said in a blog post . "Did you notice what was odd about the email? The 'from' address misspells Facebook as 'Faceboook' with three 'o's," it said. "Even

This is an interesting tip to speed up your Windows Vista or Windows 7 computer and it is built into your computer.. no additional software needed.  Let Windows borrow space your flash drive and improve the memory of your computer system. What you do need is a USB flash drive. I had an 4GB and an 8GB in my desk already and you may have one kicking around your office as well. Now, there are some specifications which I will post here just in case you decide to go out and buy one, but I just tried what I had handy since many don't have read/write specification listings on the device. How much information can you put on a device the size of your thumb or smaller? ☺ The USB Flash Drive must have a capacity of at least 256 MB, with at least 64 kilobytes (KB) of free space.
